Built by people who've been there.
I'm Clément Baissat, founder of HopeStage, and I live with bipolarity.
HopeStage was created to make mental health research easier to understand and explore, shaped by people who live with these conditions themselves.
We focus on conditions we understand firsthand. When research teams partner with HopeStage, participants can receive support from someone with lived experience of the same condition.
